When they fully destroy contracting I'm fooking off abroad. If I'm going to forced into permiedom with no hope of buying a decent home then I may as well do in in a sunny climate.Comment

Fair is not threatening to club people over the head, or lock them in a cage, for disagreeing with how you think they should spend their money.Originally posted by AtW View PostHow about 0 tax? Now that's fair, can't fairer than that surely? The car factory already pays taxes on employment, on profits.
But using those threats against someone to extort even greater sums of money from them because "they can afford it" is just playing God. The word fairness doesn't even make any sense in such a whimsical context.Comment

Just to be clear;
Currently mileage etc is a tax deductible expense.
With this proposal, is it simply that the expense is not tax deductible?
If it goes through, can you just pay the cost, but after corp tax?Comment

No one knows how they will treat it. HMRC are likely to want the full monty and treat it all as BIK and apply income tax at the appropriate rate and NI on top.Originally posted by PurpleGorilla View PostJust to be clear;
